Double 4 Farms

Double 4 Farms raises border collies on a five-acre homestead in Ashford, Alabama, in the southeast corner of the state near Dothan. Curtis Stephens has owned and worked with the breed for over 18 years, spending four of those years carefully selecting the right dogs before launching a formal breeding program.

The farm operates on a small-scale model, limiting litters to one or two per year so each puppy receives focused individual attention. Border collie puppies from Double 4 Farms are raised using Puppy Culture protocols, including Early Neural Stimulation and Early Scent Introduction during the first 16 days of life. From the start, puppies are socialized alongside cats, children, Nigerian Dwarf goats, chickens, and water — all part of daily life on the homestead.

The breeding dogs live inside the home as full family members and work alongside their people on the property. Genetic health is addressed through Embark DNA disease panel testing, and the sire carries both AKC and ABCA registration. For families looking for border collie puppies in Alabama from a small, home-based program, Double 4 Farms reflects a hands-on approach grounded in years of firsthand experience with the breed.
